Jodi Taub, LCSW, PLLC is a New York–based psychotherapist with nearly three decades of experience providing individual, couples, family, and group psychotherapy. She specializes in chronic illness, rare disease, medical trauma, and Jewish mental health, helping individuals, couples, families, and caregivers navigate life’s most complex emotional and relational challenges with resilience and compassion.

Jodi works with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, caregiver stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and identity-related concerns. She has particular expertise in supporting individuals and families living with chronic medical conditions, helping them cope with health anxiety, medical trauma, caregiving demands, and the profound psychological and relational impact of serious illness. Her approach is evidence-based, trauma-informed, and relationship-centered, emphasizing resilience, emotional regulation, and meaningful connection.

Jodi is equally committed to supporting the mental health of the Jewish community. She works with Jewish individuals, families, students, professionals, and fellow therapists navigating antisemitism, collective and intergenerational trauma, identity development, grief, and the emotional impact of current events. She provides a culturally responsive therapeutic environment where clients can openly explore Jewish identity, process experiences of discrimination and loss, and develop practical coping strategies grounded in psychological research and clinical best practices.

In addition to her clinical practice, Jodi is a nationally recognized author, speaker, educator, and researcher. She lectures nationally to mental health professionals, healthcare providers, patient organizations, and Jewish community organizations on chronic illness, medical trauma, caregiving, relationships, resilience, antisemitism, Jewish identity, and culturally responsive mental health care. She develops professional education and continuing education programs that equip clinicians to provide culturally informed, evidence-based care to diverse populations.

Jodi is the author of More Than a Patient: Building Relationships and Creating a Meaningful Life When You Have a Chronic Illness and is a contributing author to an upcoming clinical text on Jewish trauma and resilience. She serves as Program Director for Kesher Shalom Projects, is a committee member of the Jewish Social Work Consortium, and collaborates with the National Association of Social Workers’ Jewish Special Interest Group and the Association of Jewish Psychologists to advance culturally responsive mental health education, clinical practice, and community resilience.

Jodi believes healing occurs through understanding, connection, and resilience. Whether supporting clients through chronic illness, medical trauma, antisemitism, identity-related challenges, or major life transitions, she strives to help individuals and families strengthen relationships, foster resilience, and create meaningful, fulfilling lives.
